| A 1964 Alaska Railroad engine is towed and pushed by two Becker Trucking
semis onto the Johansen Expressway toward its final destination at the
Forget-Me-Not Lodge/Aurora Express on Chena Ridge Road Wednesday morning.
Susan Wilson purchased the engine by bid for $3,021, a price she picked
because it was the engine number on the cab. It was a Christmas present
for her husband Mike, who in turn had it delivered to Susan as a Valentine's
Day present which she sees as a "fair trade." The Wilsons already have
two Pullman cars, a caboose and water tanker converted into guest rooms
for their business. -- Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, February 6, 1997 |
